Agenda

  • @dfh: Add direnv + devshell to docs repo, .editorconfig & treefmt rollout, treefmt instructions on wiki
    • @dfh: I finally have more time … the next 4-5 weeks I will have much more time, so I’ll be able to get it done soon!
  • @minion: email
    • @minion: set that up with Jake
    • @minion: probably someone (me? @dfh?) should write some instructions on the wiki for “What if your SIG/Committee needs an email”
    • @minion: forum still doesn’t have email set up properly … I will do that this week
  • @coded + @minion: Tidepool introductions
    • @minion: New package layout that uses something similar to the module system which allows for specific portions to be overridden
    • @minion: We’re very excited to see where this is going, we think we should start documenting this because it’s likely other people will be very excited
    • @dfh: Can we mix nixpkgs with the new tidepool or does everything have to be built from scratch
      • @minion: You should be able to mix them just fine as everything just outputs a derivation
      • @minion: It’s plausible we’ll have a function to convert an old nixpkg to a tidepool nixpkg
  • @minion + @dfh: Headscale networking issue
    • Catch 22 because network is needed to start the container but network wont start until the container is up
  • @dfh + @minion + @coded: Figure out date & time to get started on git workflow docs
